Interesting. I've never really ever had a problem with TB! consuming an inordinate amount of CPU resources. Things that come to mind and are worth checking: - folder compression, especially for the Inbox and Outbox. Though messages are filtered to other folders and most messages are immediately sent, a copy of every incoming and outgoing message is stored in those folders. If you don't compress them, TB! will soon need to use a lot of resources to handle them. - plugin use, especially antispam have been reportedly culpable for problems as you're experiencing. The same goes for spam and antivirus proxy software or those that monitor mail traffic before TB! gets at it. NOD32 uses a Winsock scanner which causes a TB! memory leak on my system. That same Winsock scanner was causing my mailserver to crash while sending mail and then quickly manipulating IMAP mail. I used to think it was TB! causing the server crashes. - a mailbase that is problematic will have TB! spending an inordinately long time with it. - check your temp folder for overload. TB! uses the temp folder when downloading messages and an overloaded temp folder will slow it down. -- -=[ Allie ]=- (List Moderator and fellow end-user) PGPKeys: http://key.ac-martin.com Running The Bat! v2.11.02 on WinXP Pro (SP1)
